M42
Ricoh Singlex TLS

K-Mount
Ricoh XR-1
Chinon CP-5S
Chinon CP-6

Others
Canon G-III QL 1.7
YashicaMat 124G
Yashica 24
Mamiya M645 (35mm, 55mm, 80mm, 150mm, 210mm, 2X)
Mamiya RB67 Pro-S (65mm, 90mm, 127mm, 180mm, 2X)
Graphic View II (planning to sell)

I have to admit I don't use the 35mm stuff much since I got a DLSR. The Mamiyas are still what I reach for if I plan on shooting B&W.

these are the ones I've used over the last few years. Am currently cleaning out my darkroom to get back into B&W printing so some should get some shutter action soon!

Nikon FE & FM2n with 24/28/50/85/105, 35-105, 80-200, 300
Mamiya 645 Pro TL & 1000s with 45/55/80x2/150x2/2x/ext tube
Zone VI 4x5 Field Camera with 90/135/210
Ricoh GX P&S (digi)
Yashica ME1 (zone focus film camera from the 80's)
my Mum's '620' Box Brownie - 120 roll film with slight modifications to the spool ends (files off) goes though this.
Nikon Action Touch (underwater P&S)
variety of pinhole cameras up to 8x10"

Have a few others (Polaroid SX70, various P&S's) that I should really throw out and I should sell the Nikon 35mm gear (except the FE.. bought that new!)

Aside from the K100D (my first DSLR) I currently have the following:
  • Panasonic TZ5 Point & Shoot - got this one not too long ago, 28-280 optical equiv., 3" display, IS, etc. - awesome compact camera,
  • Nikon Coolpix 3200 - I use this mostly for my eBay, forums and on-line pictures, great macro mode
All my film cameras went on eBay a couple of years ago.

I go both ways, Ricoh Silver and Sears Black. Both work perfectly except for the meter switches that somethings do and sometimes don't work. Seems to be the biggest problem with these cameras.

I used to go three ways but I sold my TLS 401. Combination of older eyes and old viewfinder just didn't work and neither did the meter. I sold it to someone who had one with a good meter and viewfinder but a bad shutter and would actually use it.

I own a silver one now, but bought a black one (Ricoh version) new way back when. I lent the black camera to my brother who pawned it...bye, bye, TLS...

Olympus OM-1. Love this. The viewfinder is huge and the build is impossibly solid. It just feels "right" too; the shutter speed ring around the mount is clever as hell. Used occasionally.

Olympus Trip 35. Sharp 40/2.8 lens, meters without batteries, tough as bricks. I have a roll of 10 year old expired ISO 400 film in it right now, we'll see what (if anything) comes out of that

Nikon CoolPix 7600. My first digital. I have to give it credit for getting me interested in photography, but it's a very boring camera -- no manual control at all. At least it's small. Never use it now

Konica Big Mini something-or-other. Some sort of film P&S with a 35-70 zoom lens ( the flexibility!) that I used when I was a kid. I just found it in a box of stuff I haven't touched in years and was amazed to see that the battery still works! Don't think I will ever use this again, but it is a camera and I do own it, so...
